Today is Saturday and according to our Realtor’s original plan we were supposed to close on the house yesterday.
The thing is, we still have not been told of an appointment time, worse, we have no firm commitment for even a particular date of closing. Someone has to have dropped the ball and now I’m just [...]

I’m not sure if I ever told you this but if so you’re just going to have to hear it again.
My kids are THE best.

I’m not really that good at it. Waiting, that is.

Most of my house hunting over the last eleven years has basically taken place on the couch while browsing realtor.com. I’ve dreamed of the day the Lord would be so gracious as to give us our own home again. And while most of it has been just dreaming in those years we’ve also come extremely [...]
